Viewpoint
I have been working in the field of psychotherapy for many years and have worked with numerous clients who seek to resolve complexities, conflicts, repetitive disputes, break destructive habits, and free themselves from the chains of recurring behavioral patterns.
In the sessions I’ve had with individuals and couples, I’ve observed a similar pattern, one that is influenced by family, culture, and society, and repeatedly manifests in relationships.
As an e-reliever therapist, my role is to assist individuals who, despite repeated efforts, are unable to create or maintain healthy relationships and whose futile attempts have led them to frustration, resentment, and despair. I help them recognize these complexities and work towards change or improvement in a resilient manner within the safe space of therapy.
Therapy sessions will be tailored to your needs, available individually, for couples, or in groups, and designed to be either long-term or short-term.
